for this post

I became a WAHM just over a year ago. My days are more like:1. Get up 2 hours earlier than normal, to have time to work before the house awakens.2. Re-do some work because either the 1 year old pounded on my keyboard or the 4 year old deleted my work in order to play on starfall.com.3. Run from here to there to everywhere, because now that I "stay home" all day, I take on all those things I couldn't do when I was at work. (i.e. babysitting for others, dentist and doctor appointments on the same day, reading to the kindergarten class, ect.)4. Stay up too late, to get the work done I wasn't able to do all day.

Hello,I do not dream of staying at home. Having somewhere to go every day is helping me be more balanced. But if you have found yourself in that place, I'd say look at it as a vacation and have some structured time around the house, especially for your writing. Best of luck!And happy TT!

Hmm, sleeping in is something I haven´t done since having kids! Good luck on that one. :D

Being a work at home mom is fun. It´s nice to be around your kids and be able to take a break when you can, but it is also frustrating. There are times when you have deadlines and the kids won´t cooperate, they want to be on your lap or throw a tantrum because you won´t play with them.

My firstborn used to scream and throw himself on the floor whenever he saw me sit down at the computer because he knew it meant I wouldn´t be paying attention to him. Be prepared for a similar reaction from Hana. She´s a bit older, but she will want you to stop working all the time, too. It´s important that you have some discipline, or else it is REALLY easy to fall behind. :D

Looking forward to reading about how you do at home. I know you are going to enjoy it! And if you ever need advice, just give me a shout.
